Help:Footnotes: Difference between revisions

Footnote markers are generated using <nowiki><ref></nowiki> tags. The list of footnotes is generated using the <nowiki><references /></nowiki> tag, or the corresponding {{tlx|Reflist}} template, placed in the editable text at the point where the footnotes are to appear. The text of a footnote is placed between opening <nowiki><ref></nowiki> and closing <nowiki></ref></nowiki> tags, either at the point where the footnote marker is to appear, or within the <nowiki><references /></nowiki> element. If the page contains footnote markers but no footnote list, a red [[Help:cite error|cite error]] message will appear.
